| Popis: | Purpose: The research question posed for this study concerns ways of acquiring new competencies by employees, necessary in the new situation and necessary in the face of a change in the organization which is the implementation of cloud solutions for everyday work. Methodology: The questionnaire in the form of CATI survey (computer-assisted telephone interviewing) were directed to 50 212 companies, the return was from 400 firms. Findings: The results of the conducted research indicate that the most commonly used method is the training of key users (used in 59.25% of the 400 companies surveyed). Moreover, according to this study the dependence between company size and method used by the company of gaining a competences while introducing cloud computing to daily routines does not exist. Limitations: Respondents only in 9 out of 400 cases indicated other sources of acquiring competences than those indicated by researchers. If may be either a poor repertoire of methods used by companies for raising qualifications or reluctance in filling in the questionnaire. Further research is needed. Value of the paper: Cloud computing (ICT) offers companies new opportunities and introduces a change in the way they conduct business. This change, although it seems to be only a technological change, influences the change of the company's processes and organization itself. The competences of the employees must also change. Answering the question about their source helps to determine whether the transfer to the cloud was prepared. Paper type : Research paper |
